Dell Monitor 2007WFP doesn't automatically start

Last few days monitor won't start up when I click power on to PC[Dell desktop].

After 10 minutes or so, it "may" start again, everything comes on, appears perfect ,etc.

but, sometimes it will go ON/OFF a few times and then "seem" OK.

This unreliability has me wondering if it's just time to buy another monitor?

I've unplug/plugged the monitor in power block over and over, btw, it just powered off/on again, for no apparent reason, please advise..

btw. after watching several YouTube "fixes" for this unit, I presume it has multiple BAD capacitors,

NEVERMIND, got a $200 monitor from Walmart

ViewSonic VX2457-MHD 24" 2ms 1080p FreeSync Monitor HDMI, DisplayPortScreen Size: 24

Bought the Dell in 2007, hope the new ViewSonic will last half that long...
